Monsoon's normal this time too!

 I'm definitely back to blogging.This being my second post today. I was surfing around now when I came across an article on a news website, saying that the monsoons are going to be 95% normal this time. The five percent shortage hardly matters, as the government had gone into panic mode, suspecting a 45-50% rainfall this year. Its a great relief. It will definitely save a lot of lives...the lives of those who work on the fields..those who had written to the President to end their lives.   Rains matter a lot to an agrarian economy like India's. With everything hung upon the fields, it would have been a calamity, as many were suspecting, if the rains would have been anything short of normal. Its funny however. The Government declared Madhya Pradesh as Drought Hit just a day ago. I'm waiting to see what they will do now, or rather say.

I have been pretty busy this week, with the application process underway. I have this diploma exam which I have no idea about yet. Amongst the newer things, I have just got my way around using the internet on my cellphone(Im not that technologically sound..yeikes!) My counselor and my editor have been my best friends this week. I have spoken to them more than I have with anyone else, and with all my friends resting in the comfort of their homes, I the one am still living life of the penny counter, which sometimes gets on my nerves. I have nothing better to write about now, as I seek excuses to crawl back into bed again, this being Saturday and anyways I have nothing better to do. So till next time, Adios to me! as I guess no one reads my blog..No one does. I know this as a fact..no hard feelings..or maybe I should advertise it in the paper tomorrow...hm.... Sleep! is a much better option. Yes.
